Mango wood These stools are made from a special type of hardwood: mango wood from India. This type of wood is sustainable because it’s a byproduct of an already thriving industry: mango fruit. The trees grow on a large scale in India and they mature quickly: in 15 years instead of for instance oaks (50-100 years). The fruit production is good in the first period of the tree. As it grows older, fruit production also decreases. That is why this tree is economically less valuable on the mango plantations. The solution for mango farmers is then: to cut down and replant. Because of this way of working, the wood of the mango tree is sustainable. The forest is not just cut down. After his life as a food producer, the wood gets a second life as a piece of furniture.
Treating the product with a protective oil yearly is recommended, this will also revive the colour.
